Since t =
m, δ<t , so the ac resistance must be used.
Step 2: The impedance and effective dielectric permittivity must be calculated
using equation (3-36b), which assumes a perfect conductor. If it is unknown
whether a particular impedance formula includes the effect of a realistic conduc-
tor, the lack of a metal conductivity or a magnetic permeability variable indicates
the assumption of infinite conductivity. From (3-36b), Z 0

Step 4: The external inductance is solved with (3-31) and (3-33). Since (3-36b)
assumes a perfect conductor, the inductance is the external value.
